Just finished up 5, count em FIVE ears of that Iowa gold, still lickin the butter off my face like an old dog. Even after all that corn I think I could make room for a few of those ribs. AV8R I'll bet the Wisconsin corn has been contaminated by all the cheese that surrounds you. We finally surrendered in the battle of "The Farmer challenges the Raccoon Sweet corn Battle", so we buy it at a farmers market too. We drove from Decorah Ia. to Rochester, Minnesota today and saw lots of sweet corn stands along the road. but then too the Minnesota corn might be contaminated by Ludefisk. Enjoy those ribs and beans. Frank.

Murf, thanks for your intrest and input toward my next shop project. the pump I have on hand is rated 15 gpm at 2000 rpm. And after thinking a bit, a few years ago I mounted a 35 gpm pump on the belly of an M Farmall and drove it off the belt pulley hub with a double V belt drive I was starving the pump at full throttle with an inch and a quarter feed line to the pump from the tank, so by changing pulley sizes I slowed the pump down about 500 rpm and it's worked fine since. So I'll use a bigger feed line on the 4410. I'll mount the tank and valve system high on the 3pt. about the level of the weights on the bracket to keep access to the rear pto and regular drawbar. Likely the pump will have to be under the tractor being I never take the loader off. Grandma and I have a few Grandkids to visit yet before school starts up, so likely I won't get much shop time in for a couple weeks. However it turns out I'l post a picture of two. Frank.

Thanks Murf, I have had 2 weeks vacation a year or less for the last 7 years with logging an average of 600 hours overtime a year (being brought down only by the last 2 years otherwise it would be closer to 700. I know I deserve it but cant seem to stop smileing! LOL
Last time I was unemployed by layoff was in 1984 so I have been lucky, and in that year I met my wife so I wanted to impress her and took anouther job instead of sitting in a tree stand and enjoying it. (Now that was stupid)
Thanks again for your vote of confidence and if your in the area some day let me know I would love to play a round of golf with you!

runslikeadeere, You have me wondering what type of rear tires you have, being you mentioned the front tires being rib tires my guess is you have R1, (regular farm tractor tread desigh all around). If the rear tires don't leave an objectional tread mark in the lawn you could likely put R3 (turf type tires) on the front. You may have to switch rins and all for clearance reasons with out spending an awfull lot of money. Changing rears can get real pricey not only for the tires but it's unlikely that your curent rim will work out unless your wheel has an adjustable trad feature wher they could be moved out a notch or two for clearance. Back to your original question, If you replace the front tires with a wide flat type tread pattern you can likely add as many weights as the bracket will hold for a more secure feeling. hope this helps. Frank.

I believe it has plenty of power as long as you have the proper ballast.

Agreed. I have Power Beyond.... just an hydraulic tap.... no valves. There has to be a diverter valve someplace in your new set-up.

Wow, take a couple days off and this string really went!

When I said "super cheap fleet sales" for Ford this was not meant as a slam, but rather Ford takes great pride on selling volume numbers of vehicles to state, county, city, and "industrial" fleet customers at huge discounts. Not through regular dealer networks, but corperately. Which is good for them.

Been there, tried to bid against it, lost badly.

Hey guys,<br>
Got a new L3400 W/ FEL. Love this toy, I mean tool (wife is close by). I ordered the BL4690B backhoe, it will be in next week. Found one problem: the engine cuts off when I leave the seat due to the seat safety switch. I read the Owners Manual about how to prevent this for off the tractor PTO work. Following these instructions does not help. I am wondering how I will be able to operate the BH without disabling this safety switch (which I won't do!!). Am I doing something wrong?

So far, the best deal in Arizona I can get is 10% off MSRP on the 4310, what about ordering from another state and saving on the 8.1% sales tax?? ouch.... thanks for the info, Tom.

We were clearing an old farm to make it into a golf course, there was about 5 acres that had been an apple orchard. The trees were all old, knarly stuff and almost everyone of them had a hollow spot containing a nest.

We ended up dragging the big tub grinder close and then using the big excavator with the grapple on it to just tear them from the ground and mulch them, trees, bees and all.

Take that you nasty little buggers.

Best of luck.

I called a tow truck :) The guy had a big truck with two strong winches. He held it upright while I drove it down the hill, then hooked to the rear of the tractor and helped pull it backwards up the hill while I drove in reverse.
